We're happy to announce the first sponsor of DConf 2015: Utah Valley 
University. In addition to providing conference venue, UVU will cover 
room rental fees and simplify logistics and paperwork.

Many thanks to UVU and especially its Computer Science Department Chair, 
Chuck Allison, who was instrumental in making this happen.

This is great news, and hopefully a precedent to be followed.


Thanks,

Andrei

Awesome!

Questions:

1) There will be no kickstarter this year?

2) I'm from another country, and I'd like to participate/attend 
this year, do you already know about prices for tickets etc? (And 
this will be a good excuse to take my visa!). :D

We haven't yet decided. If you fly from outside North America, travel 
costs may likely dominate.

I encourage everyone to apply for visa as soon as possible. US visa 
process can be frustratingly delayed depending on many unknown factors.

We've lost speakers in the past due to visa delays. I agree that it's never too 
early to get this done.
